I would appreciate,if anyone on this Forum could help me out on this matter?
I have a Jet 1440 VS Lathe,(M33x3.5mm ),I am in the process of buying the HoldFast Vacum System,which uses a 3/8 inch lamp rod ,which comes through your headstock,( like a knockout bar),and you set up your system,from there.I was checking the Jet knockout for diameter,and it's about 9.5 mm,there still seemed to be a small bit of play as I was pushing through the bar ,in the stock head ,is 3/8 of a inch = to 9.5 mm?Ifb anyone has a Jet 1440 VS Lathe,and are using the HoldFast Vacum System,could you let me know,if ,setting it up ,there was no problems.
Yours Kindly Paul
